I’m all for Darwinism…but not when he takes 20+ people with him before he gets a lead injection…Dare I say we should let Darwin work his magic?

Where did i say i wanted to take everyones firearms or limit them? Some of y’all just jump at the chance to scream omg they wanna take my guns. My entire thing is limit people with mental health concerns, not every day people.That's a perfect example of why the system of allowing dangerous people to run loose is a bad idea.
Your right to feel safe doesn't trump my right to own a firearm.
If you think I'm a danger to society, don't make me spend $50 on a transfer. Lock me up. It's ridiculous to think that an adult doesn't have the capacity to kill someone, and that a slight impediment to obtaining a particular type of weapon is going to save lives.
The only reason to require background checks is to make people without critical thinking skills feel safer.

Part of that is essentially already the law, if we're talking about getting admitted involuntarily. If the law was changed to include prohibiting anyone who was on mental health meds, a bit over a quarter of the US population would be prohibited persons. Would you be ok with that? I think well over a quarter of the population is basically nuts, the problem is, you have to give someone (the government) authority to define what that means. That's extremely problematic.I’m not saying let them know who has what, i am 1000% against that. I’m saying if John Doe gets admitted to a mental hospital or any sort of mental health meds, severe issue, etc. his ability to own guns is gone.
I'm an everyday person, and you're telling me that if I go to a gun shop tomorrow morning, that I do not have to right to a firearm until I "prove" that I'm not a psychotic killer with a $5 background check.Where did i say i wanted to take everyones firearms or limit them?

Okay, that’s probably the dumbest thing i have ever heard. Background checks are only to make people feel safe? No! Its a very small solution to keep people who want to perform violent crimes from legally owning a firearm. If we didn’t have these laws the guy who continuously beats his wife, convicted and spends time in jail can now walk into Cabelas and buy a gun to possibly seek revenge. Cmon now!

It’s obvious that you just wanna argue. Have a good night. Be sure to post a pic of the gun you buy tomorrow, we like pics.I'm an everyday person, and you're telling me that if I go to a gun shop tomorrow morning, that I do not have to right to a firearm until I "prove" that I'm not a psychotic killer with a $5 background check.
You really think that they can let someone out of prison- a place where no weapon is legal and people still injure, maim, and kill people all the time- and that $5 background is going to actually make anyone safe? That's the dumbest thing I ever heard.
Put yourself in his shoes. You don't think you could kill a woman without a gun? Even women kill people without guns.
The main result of that will be people who need and would have sought help otherwise will not because they don't want to have such a basic right taken away.I’m not saying let them know who has what, i am 1000% against that.

If I may make one insignificant edit?I’m all for Darwinism…but not when he takes 20+ people with him before he gets a lead injection…
Do you think the gun control lobbyists want his AR, his semiauto handguns, his over-10-round magazines, or his Barrett?Calm down tough guy nobody wants your remington 700 30-06 and the half box of ammo that goes with it.
“Any sort of mental health meds”? Like antidepressants? Anxiety meds? What else?I’m not saying let them know who has what, i am 1000% against that. I’m saying if John Doe gets admitted to a mental hospital or any sort of mental health meds, severe issue, etc. his ability to own guns is gone.
As likely has already been correctly noted, this can’t be done absent due process....something needs to be done firearm wise to keep people with severe mental health issues from owning a firearm.
Spot on. My father was the administrator of a large state hospital in MN. I always wondered where all those severely mentally disturbed people would end up when they shut the place down in the late 70's. I knew they were not going to "main stream" most of them. I think prisons/jails are the new state hospitals in some ways. I guess we are finding out now how that policy worked out.A member from another forum posted the following and he is spot on!
“Many of our problems with a variety of Mental Cases have been subverted by Court determinations decades ago to empty mental facilities and bolt the doors closed behind them. Meanwhile; the leftists slander those who seek t protect themselves and their families and neighbors as "Mentally Deranged". Just more of my same observations over the year. Politicans do not seek to resolve problems; rather to perpetuate their power and control over the population - while lining their own pockets at Taxpayer expense.”
I will add that more importantly, we as a nation better get back to the under God principles that this nation was founded under or nothing Is going to get better.
